chore(3p/git): Unvendor git and track patches instead r/2903
This was vendored a long time ago under the expectation that keeping
it in sync with cgit would be easier this way, but it has proven not
to be a big issue.

On the other hand, a vendored copy of git is an annoying maintenance
burden. It is much easier to rebase the single (dottime) patch that we
have.

This removes the vendored copy of git and instead passes the git
source code to cgit via `pkgs.srcOnly`, which includes the applied
patch so that cgit can continue rendering dottime.

-GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.3.1
---------------------
-
- * A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by
-   casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this,
-   and aborted compilation.
-
- * Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed.
-
- * The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete
-   conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base.
-
- * The low-level merge algorithm did not handle a degenerate case of
-   merging a file with itself using itself as the common ancestor
-   gracefully.  It should produce the file itself, but instead
-   produced an empty result.
-
- * GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases.
-
- * OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim".
-
- * With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to
-   create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and
-   $(bindir)/git.
-
- * command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are
-   in a bare repository.
-
- * "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not
-   match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful.  We
-   silently make it a no-op now.
-
- * "git add -p" (and "patch" action in "git add -i") was broken when
-   the first hunk that adds a line at the top was split into two and
-   both halves are marked to be used.
-
- * "git blame path" misbehaved at the commit where path became file
-   from a directory with some files in it.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object
-   created by an ancient git.
-
- * "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered
-   configuration was set.
-
- * "git grep --color ''" did not terminate.  The command also had
-   subtle bugs with its -w option.
-
- * http-push had a small use-after-free bug.
-
- * "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less
-   efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer,
-   making the transferred data unnecessarily larger.
-
- * "git remote show origin" segfaulted when origin was still empty.
-
-Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages
-and documentation are included as well.
